How do you respond to the question … "Don't you have enough miniatures?" |

Did Napoleon have enough soldiers? |

I say "Actually, I have too many--but not always the right ones. And it's tough to find them good homes." |

I don't understand your question. What is this "enough" you use in reference to miniatures? |

Actually yes, but I agree with Robert. I find there is a fine line between collecting and hoarding. I have crossed it many times over. Buy, store, forget, rediscover, purge, repeat…. |
ZULUPAUL | 24 Nov 2017 6:52 p.m. PST |
Yes & I need to get rid of some. |

While I have some that need a good home – I need more to start or complete other interests |

Have we run out of interesting subjects to wargame? |
Narratio | 24 Nov 2017 8:00 p.m. PST |
A loud, confident 'NO!" is the only acceptable answer. |
FusilierDan | 24 Nov 2017 8:58 p.m. PST |
Enough for what? Enough of which ones? Short answer no. |
wrgmr1 | 24 Nov 2017 9:53 p.m. PST |
Only when I run out of space to store them. |

Can never have too many. Enough is not enough. |

Much like stamp and coins collectors-- who collect just to have, look at, admire, and simply for the purpose of collecting -- I truly believe that our hobby is as much about collecting as it is gaming? Same holds true with model railroading. Regards Russ Dunaway |

There's always room for another bag of shiney new toy soldiers ! I'm a fan of the 'big battalions' and I must have over 4000 15mm Napoleonics neatly arranged ready for the painting table, mostly Old Glory and Lancashire games but I find I still need to add to this to get the units I want looking right. I like nothing better than looking through the bags and dreaming about painting this regiment or that one. Oddly enough this gives me more pleasure than actually gaming! Russ is spot on, a pox on trying to analyse it all we're wargamers not accountants! Buy what you can afford when ever you want it and enjoy the fun of the hobby. |

No, but have way more than I could handle at once |

I hope not, because otherwise, what will my wife give me for Christmas? Other than otherwise, of course yes. It's a hobby after all . . . |
Legion 4 | 25 Nov 2017 7:54 a.m. PST |
Too many with more to come !!!!! But yes, like a lot of hobbies collecting is all part of it. E.g. Knew a woman that collected ceramic frogs … so go figure ! |
Mick the Metalsmith | 25 Nov 2017 9:50 a.m. PST |
My wife thinks I do. Me? Silly question. Unpainted figs prevents early death. I did finally painted up some 40 year old dwarf figs I bought back as a kid. This to help justify my purchase of some new figs to she who must be obeyed. It didn't work. |

What is this "enough" of which you speak? |
Black Cavalier | 25 Nov 2017 2:09 p.m. PST |
I answer with "Don't you have enough shoes/purses/coats!?" |

Do you have enough not getting the crap kicked out of you? |

Well … I did what I said I wouldn't do and fell for the allure of Cyber Monday. I bought some 6mm Troops for Exodus Wars on Shapeways. Said I wouldn't do it … But couldn't pass up 10% off and free shipping ! |

You can never have enough, T34s, Orcs or trees. |
